Superior SDC-Based, Non-Toxic, Broad-Spectrum Antimicrobial Offers Kill Times as Fast as 30 Seconds
RANCHO CUCAMONGA, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–PURE Bioscience, Inc. (OTCQB: PURE), creator of the patented non-toxic silver dihydrogen citrate (SDC) antimicrobial, today announced it received a purchase order to ship EPA-registered PURE® Hard Surface disinfectant to Harmony Bioscience, a distributor in Asia with various locations. Harmony Bioscience holds Asian import and sales permits for PURE Hard Surface disinfectant. PURE Chairman and CEO Tom Y. Lee is an affiliate of Harmony Bioscience.
The order is for RTU (ready-to-use) and is expected to ship by sea in early April to Harmony International Holdings Co., Ltd. (Hong Kong). From there, PURE Hard Surface disinfectant will then be redistributed to Taiwan Harmony Eco-Science Col, Ltd. and Guangzhou Harmony Eco-Science Co., Ltd. (China). The product will then be resold for institutional, janitorial, consumer, hospital and school use. A smaller initial shipment was sent by air last week to Hong Kong.
Lee said, “We are pleased that the years of work to prepare us to expand our domestic sales of our powerful and non-toxic antimicrobial solution into the Asian market are beginning to pay off. We are hopeful that this is the first of what could become future, recurring orders.
“PURE Hard Surface disinfectant – which has kill times as fast as 30 seconds and is also registered for use on food contact surfaces – is being used in the U.S. by food transport companies, restaurants, produce processors and more than 100 processors/manufactures as a proven and effective disinfection solution,” Lee concluded.
Since 2011, the U.S. EPA has registered PURE Hard Surface disinfectant to be effective on a wide range of pathogens, including:
Superior Efficacy: Eco-Friendly Sanitization Solution on Hard, Non-Porous, Environmental and Food Contact Surfaces
Mode of Action – How It Works
SDC’s rapid and broad-spectrum efficacy is largely attributed to its dual mechanisms of action and unique characteristics. PURE’s ‘Trojan Horse’ mode of action video is available at https://www.purebio.com/technology/silver-dihydrogen-citrate-sdc.htm.
